(3.75) | Ingen/inga | "A young wife in a nineteenth-century Sicilian village, Marta is deeply in love with her husband Rocco and pregnant with his child. But when Rocco discovers a letter written to Marta by a would-be suitor, he falsely accuses her of infidelity and banishes her from their home. Soon the whole village turns against the supposed adulteress, setting in motion a series of tragic events that culminates in the loss of Marta's family home and business, as well as the deaths of her father and newborn child. Plunged into poverty and treated as a social leper, with practically nothing else to lose, Marta is determined to claw her way back into a society bent on excluding her. The Outcast is an early masterwork from Nobel Prize-winning Italian author Luigi Pirandello that combines elements of Zolaesque naturalism with emerging modernist aesthetics. This fresh English translation, the first one in nearly one hundred years, showcases Pirandello's deft play with language and his use of irony"--… (mer) |

Fiaccato dal cordoglio, a quel peso, egli fu quasi per cadere con lei: la sostenne con sforzo quasi rabbioso, nella tremenda esasperazione: strinse i denti, contrasse tuto il volto e scosse il capo disperatamente. In quest'atto, gli occhi gli andarono sul volto scoperto della madre sul letto funebre, tra i quattro ceri. Come se la morta si fosse affacciata a guardare. Vincendo il ribrezzo che il corpo della moglie pur tanto desiderato gl'incuteva, egli se la strinse forte al petto di nuovo e, con gli occhi fissi su cadavere, balbettò, preso di paura: - Guarda... guarda mia madre... Perdono, perdono... Rimani qui. Vegliamola insieme...
